I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 249 The Assassination of Emperor Wan Jing

The journey to the Monster Clan’s Holy Land has come to an end.

Everyone searched up and down several times, but couldn't find anything, so they could only return to the ship in low spirits.

There are different opinions about who took away this treasure. Red Fox is hiding in the cabin and does not show up. The last thing he can think of is outsiders.

After all, there were only a handful of women on and off the ship, and they were all watching from the outside, and no one entered at all.

Maybe he got the treasure, jumped into the water and ran away? Without any clues, we can only give up for now.

First Officer Zhou chose to sail the boat immediately, and after preparing to send them back to the shore, he notified the organization of the news and arranged for more manpower to search for them.

As for Cao An and the others, they took advantage of this time to return home and stay in the room to practice meditation.

After the soul of the red fox left the body, Ying Huorong's bloodline power also ushered in a full-scale explosion, and the realm broke through, and there were already faint signs of hitting the second-level realm.

Two arowanas accompanied Red Fox in, and they also gained a lot this time. According to the strength of the monster clan, they should be able to reach the third level and overtake Cao An.

However, it still takes a certain amount of time to digest it. Including Red Fox, they are all in a state of overexertion and need to slowly understand the mystery of the power of Tianlong.

Naturally, Cao An also gained a lot. He rushed to the peak of the fifth level. Before getting off the boat, he relied on the feedback of the white dragon fish to break through to the fourth level.

The essence flowed around the sky, and the limbs and bones made a muffled sound, breaking through the shackles of the acupoints, and the strength caught up to the next level.

"When you reach the fourth-level [Tongyuan] realm, power has spread throughout your body, connecting heaven and earth, ushering in a qualitative change." Cao An sat cross-legged, feeling the majestic energy in his body.

If before he was just passive, using his energy moves to fight the enemy, then now, his energy has characteristics.

For example, Ying Huorong's flame, Sanyang's Buddha's will, and Ying Changfeng's killing are all mixed with special power in their energy.

Cao An's characteristic is naturally not water. After all, water embroidery is just his official position and treasure.

His strength characteristic is Hunyuan.

"It turns out to be Hunyuan. If you can cultivate this power, you can be considered a genius of the human race." Red Fox took the time to give Cao An an evaluation.

Cao An was overjoyed: "Is Hunyuan very powerful?"

"It's not bad. Hunyuan's attack and defense are integrated, which is a very adaptable characteristic. But generally speaking, only those who are neither male nor female can succeed in cultivation. You have such a characteristic, you should rely on two fishes."

Cao An nodded to express his understanding.

As a warrior practices, both his skills and habits will subtly affect the development of his own strength.

When the fourth level of Tongyuan realm is achieved, the evolution of strength will appear.

Cao An's black and white Pisces are both top spiritual beasts, and the power of the two fed back to him, thus achieving the Hunyuan power of yin and yang balance.

"Speaking of which, this yin-yang fish seems to be the secret treasure that [Ten Eyes] desires. I should ask the Dongzhou monk about it."

"It's too late, they have already changed ships and gone home."

"Yeah, they left really fast. I don't know how they will explain to the master after they return."

Explain? There is nothing to explain.

……

Dongzhou, in front of the small square of Xianmeng.

When Wen Fufu came back from her trip happily, she happened to meet her uncle and described the experience in a 'simple' way.

"It's almost like, I got lost in the Holy Land, and then the Holy Land exploded with 'Bang!' and the treasure inside was gone."

The vivid description of Wen Fufu dancing seems to say a lot, but also seems to say nothing.

"Then you didn't pay attention. Is there anything special about it?" Uncle Master hoped that she would try to recall it.

But this guy was just traveling, so he didn't pay attention at all and shook his head.

"There's nothing special about it. I just poked and poked robbers on the road and fought off many of them. By the way, what's wrong with Uncle Shi's knees? Why are you using a cane?"

Uncle Master's eyelids twitched when he heard her question: "...I accidentally got an arrow in my knee, it's okay."

"How could you be so careless? Let me help you." Wen Fufu was concerned and wanted to step forward.

But just as he got closer, the crutches he was supporting clanged! 'It broke inexplicably.

Uncle Master lost his balance and fell directly to the ground. His newly injured knee board shattered again, and he grimaced in pain.

"Uncle! Are you okay? I'll help you up." "No! Stay away from me!"

"Uncle Master~"

"Spare me~"

……

Dongzhou, Jishihui.

The master of the pavilion sat in the main seat, looking at Qiao Shigong and Wang Jiang with careful eyes, asking the same question.

"Who took the treasure in the Demon Clan Holy Land? Do you know?"

"Disciple, I don't know." Wang Jiang replied calmly, his face still numb.

"Is there anyone who is suspicious?"

"Back to the Pavilion Master, everyone was present at the time and there was no suspect." Qiao Shigong lowered his body and responded.

The Pavilion Master of Jishihui was a little disappointed. He repeatedly asked about the strange things on the ship, but found nothing, so he waved the two of them to leave without interest.

Little did he know that the two people who left the study had another conversation in private.

"Have you really decided to betray Jishihui?" Wang Jiang's face was cold, but he regarded Qiao Shigong as a brother in his heart.

Qiao Shigong shook his head: "Of course it's not a rebellion."

"But why don't you tell the truth? You and I both know that Cao An took the treasures of the Holy Land."

Catch the thief but not the stolen goods, but a smart person can easily guess the key.

Especially Qiao Shigong and Wang Jiang, they followed Cao An for a full hour!

In Cao An's eyes, it was a green grassland. Just walk along the grassland without much difficulty.

But in the eyes of the two of them, Cao An even behaved strangely by spinning around in circles. They were confused by the illusion the whole time, and they just followed the imitation of gourd painting.

They knew very well that Cao An could not only resist the erosion of evil spirits, but even knew the correct path to the inside.

Only Cao An can take away the treasures in this holy land.

Of course, certain things are certain, but some things cannot be said externally.

"If we report it truthfully, we will get some rewards at most, but Cao An will be in trouble. He will be hunted down by the entire East Continent!" Qiao Shigong is experienced in the world and naturally knows the reason for holding a jade in his arms.

Sometimes, the more decent people are, the more sinister their methods are.

During this trip, Cao An was their savior, so it was natural for him to reciprocate his kindness.

"And this Jishihui is not worthy of our loyalty at all."

"How to say?"

"That day there was an attack on the ship, and I saw a familiar figure."

Qiao Shigong's words stopped short, but Wang Jiang, who was familiar with him, quickly understood the meaning: among those killers, there were people from Jishihui.

In other words, this time they were deceived into being used as pawns on the ship. Ji Shihui knew about it and even secretly supported it.

This group of people didn't care about their feelings at all, let alone their lives.

"I want to go to Brother Cao. He is amazing. Maybe it will be a better way out."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

……

People from all walks of life are fussing over the news about this demon clan's holy land.

As for the person involved, Cao An was not so free at the moment.

As soon as his front foot landed on the shore, Ying Changfeng, who was catching up with his back foot, brought him a piece of bombshell news.

"Emperor Wan Jing was assassinated."
